"Brother Mingxuan, goodbye! I have to go home with my brother, you have time to come to my house to play! Xia Cao smiled sweetly and said goodbye to Li Mingxuan, and reluctantly waved goodbye. Although the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion is very reluctant to exchange the true meaning of food with the three generations of village officials, it is more important to go home with the eldest brother to cook food, after all, it is better to do it, and eating in your mouth is the king.

Li Mingxuan saw that the three brothers and sisters of the Xia family were gone, and he was left alone in the empty courtyard. The adults in the family have not come back yet, and the grandfather will probably come back after dark, and the father and mother estimate that the sun will not come back until the sun sets completely. After talking so much just now, I felt hungry, so I opened the package and ate a few viciously.

"Mother, mother, we're back."

The three siblings habitually began to call their mothers as soon as they arrived at the door.

"Hey, I'm back!" Su Shi hurriedly responded when he heard the children's voices. She had just finished pickling bamboo shoots, and now she is driving the hens back to the basket in the yard.

As soon as Xia Cao entered the door, she was greeted by a giggling and cheerful hen scurrying around, and found that there was only her mother in the yard, and the cheap daddy had not returned.

"Mother, are the bamboo shoots pickled?" Xia Cao took advantage of the time when the eldest brother went to the kitchen to cook, and quietly asked her mother. The face is a little sneaky, and the movements are secret, afraid that the eldest brother will find her to settle accounts after the autumn.

"It's all done, look at your nervousness, if Da Lang asks where the salt goes? Mother for you! "Knowing the son Mo Ruomu, the Su family still knows the personalities of their three children clearly, and they can see through Xia Cao's little tricks at a glance.

Sure enough, a high voice came from the kitchen, "Mother, how is the salt in the kitchen almost bottoming out!" The words just fell. Xia Qiaomu ran out with the salt jar in his arms, put the jar under Su Shi's nose, and asked with a little anger in confusion: "Mother, when I was cooking at noon today, I remember a lot more!" ”

"Oh, your sister Rika came over to borrow some salt just now, anyway, when we go to town tomorrow, we'll only leave a little, and give her the rest. Recently, their family has not been busy with spring ploughing, so they have no time to go to the town, and there are many places to use salt. Dalang, tomorrow we will go to the town to buy some more. "I didn't expect that the usually docile and docile mother would not be red or out of breath when she lied.

As soon as the cautious Xia Qiaomu heard that the salt was lent to Uncle Dashan's family, he didn't suspect anything, and returned to the kitchen with the salt jar. When he turned around, Xia Cao grimaced at Su and ran to find Xia Maihe.

At this time, Xia Maihe was still squatting in the courtyard guarding two large wooden barrels, afraid that there would be some mice or something like stealing food. Since he saw the deliciousness of kudzu yesterday, he is now precious to these slurries, and it is estimated that he may want to sleep with a wooden barrel.

"Second brother, what are you doing here?" Xia Cao shook Xia Mai He, who was squatting and smirking.

Xia Maihe came back to his senses and found that his sister had a smiling face in front of him, a little frightened, and sat on the ground with a butt. He pouted and said, "Sister, why are you scaring me!" ”

"I've called you several times, but you didn't answer me. What are you thinking? Xia Cao said backwards.

Xia Cao also sat on the ground, looking like a good brother, and said with a hippie face: "Second brother, was it fun to go to the town last time?" Still want to go? ”

"Go, there's so much to eat in town." Xia Maihe agreed, and it was good to have no money to buy a feast for the eyes.

Xia Cao continued to instigate, put on a mysterious expression, and lowered her voice: "I have a major piece of information, the eldest brother and his mother will go to the town tomorrow, and when they have dinner, they promise to bring the two of us." You'll remember to look at my face later. ”

Xia Maihe completely trusted his sister, and agreed without thinking about it.

In the early morning of the next day, Xia Cao stretched his little lazy waist and sat proudly on the ox cart of the old man Li at the entrance of the village, with the Su family, the eldest brother and the second brother of the alliance by his side, and the cheap father had to go to the fields to help Li Dashan work.

Because the big guys are busy with spring ploughing, no one goes into the city during this time. After waiting for half an hour, in addition to his family of four, there were only two or three people on the ox cart who were in a hurry to enter the city to supply daily necessities.

On the empty ox cart, Xia Cao relied on the second brother to catch up on sleep and meet with Zhou Hui, and also told Xia Maihe not to wake her up when she didn't come to Wusu Town, anyway, she was a child and didn't need to pay attention to any manners.

Xia Qiaomu glanced at Xia Cao, who was sleeping peacefully, and remembered what Xia Cao did at dinner yesterday, and his head still hurt faintly. Yesterday, in order to be able to enter the city, my sister cried, made trouble, and hanged herself.

The town of Wusu has not changed much from last time, except that the streets are a little deserted. The mother-in-law, Su, took her three children directly to a show shop and walked in.

After following the eldest brother to read and write for a few days, Xia Cao still vaguely recognized a few big characters on the plaque of the embroidery workshop "Wuyi Pavilion". It feels good not to be illiterate, she can read the plaques of many shops on the street along the way, this stomach is a little inky, and the mood is also a little more cheerful, and the corners of her mouth hum.

"Sister Su, what good things are you going to take today?" The proprietress of the shop saw Su's smiling face and said hello. The proprietress is about thirty years old, her face is well maintained, and her pale green clothes make people look even younger.

Su's embroidery is considered to be the top level in this Wusu Town, and the embroidered handkerchief is finer, more vivid and lifelike than others. It is very popular in this small town, and the proprietress of Wuyi Pavilion uses her handkerchief as a gold sign in the store.

He is not afraid to go all over the world with a skill in his hand, and Su's remuneration is also more generous than others. Five or six handkerchiefs were taken out of Su's hand, and the proprietress happily gave one or two pieces of silver.

One or two pieces of silver is far more than five or six pieces of handkerchief for others, but Xia Cao feels that it is more than this price. In her previous life, in that era of mechanical manufacturing, handicrafts were all at a high price. She has never seen a pig run, but she has also eaten pork, although she is a layman in the embroidery industry, and she also knows that her mother's embroidery work also belongs to the master level. It took a lot of effort to embroider these handkerchiefs for a month. And embroidery can also hurt your eyes and sore neck.

"Sister Xu, what fabric do you have here? How many clothes would I like to make for the children and her father? Su Shi took the silver tael, looked around at the fabric in the store and asked the proprietress .

The smile on the proprietress enlarged, and she pointed to a few pieces of fabric on the side and said, "In the past few days, the store has just bought some materials, and the colors of the fabrics are bright and suitable for children, and the price is not high." What do you think of these fabrics? ”

Su Shi stepped forward to look at the fabric, rubbing his hands lightly to check the quality, the pink ones were suitable for summer grass, and the blue and cyan ones were also suitable for the arbor brothers. Pointing to a few horses, he said, "You can give me all these things, and I want another ink-colored one." "There is money in hand, and the Su family is also arrogant.

"Mother, won't you make you new clothes?" Xia Cao saw that none of those colors were suitable for Su Shi and asked.

Su Shi faced the sincere gaze of the three children, and couldn't say anything he didn't need, and said to the proprietress: "That yellow horse will also be pulled for me." ”

"It's a total of one or two or twenty wen, erase the odds, and I'll take you one or two, but Sister Su will remember to send more handkerchiefs in the future." The proprietress finished her calculations and raised her head and said.
